The experience

This is not a religious tour and it has nothing to do with any faith tradition. Instead, it's built around four core techniques: learning to harmonize your mind, emotions, body and life energies; experiencing the joy and ecstasy within yourself through specific methods; understanding how your conscious mind, intellect and subconscious mind interact; and grasping ancient yogic culture in its true sense rather than as a modern commodity. A local guide trained by Yo Tours walks you through the city while delivering this instruction, stopping at places that matter to the teaching.

The experience unfolds over two hours as a walking tour, so you move through Varanasi's streets while absorbing the techniques and philosophy. Your guide speaks English or Hindi, making the instruction accessible depending on your language. You'll have time for great conversations about the religious aspects and local importance of what you're learning, grounded in the actual city around you rather than abstract theory. The tour ends with a souvenir and local prasad, a small gift that marks the completion of the session.

This tour is tracked at the head office for guest safety. Come prepared to walk and to listen. The guide will reveal the city's gems you'd easily miss on your own, woven into the spiritual instruction itself.
